What is ggrks?

Ggrks is a CLI program for performing Google searches that I made in a day as a joke.

What does "ggrks" mean?

"Ggrks" is an acronym used in Japanese internet slang. It expands to "ググれカス" (gugure kasu), which I like to translate as "fucking Google it, bitch."

The English equivalent is "jfgi."

Why did you make this, anyway?

Because I was inspired by a song of the same name, and thought it'd be funny to have a legitimate reason to type ggrks into a terminal.

Can I use ggrks as a library?

Assuming I configured everything correctly, yes. Just add ggrks to your dependencies in Cargo.toml, then use it like this:

use ggrks::ggrks;
// ...
ggrks("<query>");

Don't worry, calling ggrks::ggrks() will never involve any profanity. (Well, apart from the function's name, that is.)

How do I install ggrks?

cargo install ggrks

I can't figure out how to get cross-building to work, so I'm not providing any prebuilt binaries. You're on your own, bitch. 😜

How do I use ggrks?

Running ggrks without any arguments will display a help message. 読めカス。

Can I contribute to ggrks?

Sure, I guess. You're probably better off spending your time doing other things, though. (Also, I'm not very active on GitHub, so if you need my attention, please ping me on Twitter.)

As far as things to improve upon... I guess we could use some more extras? (See src/ks.rs)
